It's Back to School for Monroe's Oldtimers

School days may be a distant memory for Monroe's students of the '40's and '50's, but the bell is ringing again for them this September. It's time for all to come back from their long recess and head toward their class reunion.

The gang's coming back together again on Sept. 16 for the 10th biannual "Monroe/Stepney Old Timers Reunion" and dinner to be held at Roberto's Restaurant, 505 Main Street, from 1 to 5 p.m.

The event was organized by the students who graduated Monroe Elementary School in 1944, but anyone who graduated from Monroe Elementary School before 1958 is welcome to attend, along with their spouses, children and friends.

History buffs, who want to see and meet people from the "Greatest Generation" and to see their photographs and memorabilia from the period, are also welcome.

Admission is $32 per person and includes a full buffet, soft drinks, a celebration pen and directory. R.S.V.P. no later than Sept. 1 by calling June Wininger at (203) 268-4422, sending her an email to jw633@snet.net or mailing it to Wininger at 204 Church St., Monroe, CT 06468.

The reunion committee includes: June Wininger, Jessie and Kitty Taylor, Richard Michel, Holly Ann Granville, Elma Jean Wiacek and Bernard Sippin.
